I'm too short to drive. Which cars are best for short people?

I'm getting a car in a couple of months and I've test drived some of my friends cars. Well I attempted to. I'm always too short to see over the wheel. When my sister started driving she used pillows but a f u ck in miracle happened and she grew and didn't need them. She had a bug. You know one of those cute little girly cars. I don't really care for them so what car would be best for my 4'11 height?

    Some cars do let their Seats go higher, but if you are unable to drive still, you could still use any car, just as the comment above said, use a booster seat and pedal extenders.

    Also the steering wheel can move up and down to help you, should be a leaver under the wheel is at the side off it.

    I'm a little shorter than you but a bit older. I had a lot of issues with driving at first. I've found that Japanese and Korean cars work well, Like Mazda, Toyota and Nissan. The size of the car isn't important, it's how the seat moves to fit a smaller person. Trying cars out at dealers is the only real way to be sure (even if you don't plan on buying from the dealer!) You might find that pedal extenders make life easier for you too. If you want to chat over the issues you can mail me- cutieclaire2205@yahoo.co.uk.

    Miata, smart car, Isetta, daihatsu, mini , morris minor, austin healey, gremlins are just about right. if you have duck feet.

    But the miata, definitely easiest to find and most reliable of that type.
